Wally's Deli is a hoagie shop located at the corner of Tilghman and N 17th St. in Allentown. This is the only place in town to get a Hog Sandwich.Make sure to bring your appetite because these sandwiches are huge! All sandwiches are available in small, medium, large, and supersized. You also have the option to "unhog" your sandwich which is all the ingredients without the bread.I ordered Wally's Decker which is one of their specialty hogs. It's made with American cheese, baked ham, turkey, bacon, and mayonnaise. Phenomenal! One of the best, if not the best, sandwiches I've ever had.Wally's Decker - 8.5Food - 8.5Service - 8.1Value - 8.1Restaurant score - 82

Just came from shopping and it was getting closer to closing. Took our order and asked if we could eat there. I assured them we be done by closing. Was getting closer to closing and they were so nice to tell us to take our time not to rush. Thank you for being so nice and push us out.

One of my all time favorites. Anything is good here. Like the selection of hogs. You really must stop here.

The Good:"HOME OF THE HOG."Wally's doesn't skimp on filling the Hogs with meat and cheese that is evenly distributed giving a blended flavor in every bite! Most are topped with our homemade sauces. Some contain homemade Thousand Island dressing, others have sauces made with horseradish or jalapeño sauce.Among Specialty Hogs containing several kinds of meat are the Hoofty, Porky, Sassy, Zinger and Boss Hog.Despite their names, not every Hog contains ham or bacon- the Tommy, for example, contains turkey. And the most popular is the meatless Veggie.Owned by Wally and Sue Roberts, Wally's began as just another hoagie shop when it opened in Emmaus in 1989. But the couple had a conflict with another restaurant in the same strip mall already having hoagies on it's menu. Facing a possible lawsuit, a few changes were made and the "Hog" was born. Now they say what happened was a blessing in disguise. Six months later they added the Allentown location which through the years has had the opportunity to grow adding a grill and fryer while offering breakfast. Sue runs the Emmaus shop and Wally, along with their daughter, Alisha, take care of Allentown.The Bad:The prices are high and I know a lot of people that simply won't go there any more, just for that reason. I live just 3 blocks from Wally's and work 3 blocks from Wally's too. Wally's wife Sue is mean and vindictive. I won't go there anymore despite the food is good. I got into a petty argument with Sue because I ordered a pork roll and American cheese sandwich on a roll over the phone. She kept asking me if I wanted pork roll, egg, and cheese. So I was annoyed after she asked a 2nd time and I said I told you exactly what I want and that's it. She went into a verbal diatribe about how she must ask me if I want egg too. I said why don't you ask me if I want tuna while your at it. She got angry, and mean, so I hung up the phone. I like pork roll and American cheese a lot and felt bad and decided to give them a 2nd chance. But this time I went into the store and she blew up at me saying I ordered the sandwhich before and never picked it up and stiffed them. I said I never ordered anything, I started to order but hung up when she got nasty. Wally came over and I explained what happened and offered to pay for the sandwhich they claimed I stiffed the with. He wouldn't take the money and we cleared the air.2 weeks later I go back for a pork roll fix and Wally wasn't there. Sue remembered me and with a scowl and a fould mood she took mt order and tried to make me get an egg again. I said - I told you EXACTLY what I want and egg was not mentioned. SHe thru a huffy fit, then Sue shorted the pork roll on my sandwhich and I told her so. I brought it back and said Wally puts 3 slices of pork roll when I order it. SHe insisted that was a mistake, but Wally had explained that when orderin just pork roll and American cheese - he puts 3 slices of pork roll to make up for not getting the eggs. Normally pork roll, egg, and cheese come with 2 slices or pork roll. Lol! Sue insisted I was lying and I simply asked for my money back because I was NOT going to pay $7 for the sandwhich with just 2 slices of pork roll on it. I got my money and a ton of lip service. NEVER GOING BACK! End of silly but true story.
